Thanks for doing this. It looks good, and if you've tested it I'm
satisfied. I suggest that we apply patches 1 and 2 immediately. AUIU
they don't require any changes to the buildfarm, as the MSVC build
process will automatically build and install it with these changes. Then
if all goes well we can apply the third patch and I'll fix the buildfarm
client for the forthcoming release to run the tests on MSVC builds.
Nothing will break in the meantime - the tests just won't get run until
the new client version is deployed.
cheers
